    You can bump up your idle speed in gear some. At 30 hours it shouldn't need a decarb yet. But when it is time use BRP engine tuner. Easiest way to apply it is to shoot it into the maintenance port on the primer solenoid. Don't do it on a concrete driveway though. It will leave marks. The sync n link procedure is too lenghty to type and is in Chapter one of the service manual.
